21st. Century Shooting Gallery: Hostage to the State
Mr. Fish
2025, 13 x 20 in
A man wearing a hat labeled "Israel" forcefully holds a figure captive, the human shield's shirt reading "Judaism." Through this powerful allegory, Mr. Fish draws a stark distinction between the Jewish faith and the political state of Israel, suggesting that nationalism has co-opted — and held hostage — the deeper spiritual and ethical tenets of Judaism. The image challenges viewers to confront how political agendas can weaponize religious identities.
